Size, shape, density, and atmospheric limit of (50000) Quaoar revealed from 14 years of stellar occultation
Giuliano Margoti, Felipe Braga-Ribas, José Luis Ortiz +173
We present results from 28 stellar occultations by the large Trans-Neptunian Object (50000) Quaoar registered between 2018 and 2025. By performing a joint analysis of this occultat…
Detection and characterisation of binary asteroid candidates through stellar occultations
R. Lallemand, J. Desmars, B. Sicardy +256
Binary asteroids provide key access to fundamental parameters of Solar System remnants and planetary formations. However, the current knowledge of binary asteroids remains strongly…
Follow the wobble: Statistical methods to detect astrometric binary asteroids in Gaia FPR
Luana Liberato, Paolo Tanga, David Mary +7
In a previous article, we obtained the first-ever list of astrometric binary asteroid candidates. Some of these candidates have now been confirmed. In that previous work, however,…
Size and Shape of Jupiter Trojan (2207) Antenor from Stellar Occultations
Feliphe S. Ferreira, Julio I. B. Camargo, Bruno E. Morgado +34
Librating around the Lagrange L5, the Jupiter's Trojan (2207) Antenor has been observed in recent years and its rotational light curve suggests it to be a very likely binary astero…
Stellar occultation observations of (38628) Huya and its satellite: a detailed look into the system
F. L. Rommel, E. Fernández-Valenzuela, B. C. N. Proudfoot +78
The physical and orbital parameters of Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs) provide valuable information about the Solar System's formation and evolution. In particular, the characteriza…
